Currently every file is actually compiled twice. So nobody would reasonably process the whole buffer after having edited it somewhere in the middle just to trigger the automatic compilation. Also, a completely processed buffer doesn't seem to be retracted when starting to process another buffer. This is not what you want in Coq where the environment remains polluted by the definitions made in the other module.
